Last year? 4 stars. This year? GO VISIT!!!!!…read more -- My family takes Haunted attractions very seriously. We start a spreadsheet during summer time of which haunts to visit, when, where, how much, etc. From last year' version of this attraction, I can honestly say that it's improved even better than previous season. They still offer military discounts which is appreciated. They mention that if you don't touch the actors, they won't touch you. APPRECIATED. It's inside, so I don't have to go on a rant about uneven DARK walking grounds. Free parking lot, EASY location to find, corner business. This year' theme is Karn-E-VIL and the actors were AMAZING!!!! They had exquisite areas to hide, jump, shout, spook..... and even at the end when you exit.......still fun! I reside in Sacramento and will drive here EVERY year to visit. Please, management, keep up the good spooky work and I'll see you next year! 10 Stars ***********

Am I at the same haunted house as everyone else, because I don't understand the hype…read more We got there early and they were well organized and got us in on time for our 6:15pm program. The bar downstairs is ridiculously expensive at around $12 for a small glass of liquor with lots of ice, of $7 for a bottle of water. Restrooms are open to anyone and mon gendered so be mindful when you're at the urinal because women can and will be behind you at the sink washing their hands. The decorations look like something out of Hobby Lobby meets Dollar Tree. Oh with a lot of cheap flat screens everywhere. The actors reminded me of everyone in my High School acting club. Good try, lots of passion, but not scary. Especially when I've been to both Universal Studios Florida and LA. Groups are about 10 people and our group had a lot of scaredy cats. You can pay extra for these red glow necklaces that make actors choose you or try extra hard to scare you. Turns out some people in our group are scared easily even though they were posing as tough with their necklaces LOL So the theme this year 2025 is good witches against bad witches who are turning humans into rats and zombies. Ummm. .okay. I found the whole thing comical and give this place 3.5 stars. Wish they would spend more time and money on the decorations, tone down the overacting and screaming, and get a better plot line. Crystals that change color, and finding those crystals seem less than scary if you ask me. This would be a 4 star haunted house if you're like 12 years old.

October 2025…read more... Another Halloween season of driving from Sacramento all the way to San Jose to experience Bernal Scream again! We're pretty dedicated fans of this Haunt and they never disappoint! The props are really well executed. Actors stay in character and really perform in a way that is curated well. Security measures are present and it always feels like a safe environment despite the screams and fun. I enjoyed 2024' location, I enjoyed 2025' location... I have one gripe that..... might give away one of the areas during the walk-thru experience.... For 2025... It was held at the fairgrounds and you get your tickets, walk inside to the lined waiting areas and wait to be called for entry. Once we entered the haunt, just the 2 of us, it was a series of different rooms to walk thru, experience the "theme" of each area, actors are spread out within the venue for that extra scare... One of my hesitations with any haunt.... it's not the actors, props, setups, or darkness...... it's usually having to face the unknown of what might be a scare presented as a phobia. For 2025, there was an area that had from what I could see.... like plastic prop style snakes, and that's a real phobia for people. Obviously, this is my issue to deal with personally, but it would be nice to not encounter a snake effect during haunts. That room scared me the most, and although I knew logically they weren't real, it's a real phobia, a real scare, and an elevated heart rate that I didn't want to experience. We will continue to support and enjoy Bernal! The team does amazing work! But please..... if reading this, take that into consideration. Other than that..... thank you for offering another great year of scares!

You come in they scan your ticket and they give you two blue tickets for the haunted house. We had bough the fast pass for this event and so we were suppose to get two fast pass tickets only to realize at the front they gave me general admission. I apologized to the greeter and offered to show my official tickets but she said it was fine. Up until this point I was confused about the tickets. I wasn't sure if this is a haunted house that you can go in many times but it was clear it was a one time deal. That was pretty upsetting. So we basically paid $50 dollars to go into the haunted house once. And it was quite a small haunted house too. They advertised all these vendors and food trucks but there was only 3 vendors there and two food trucks. We did get food from Benitos but it was not that good. Their strawberry lemonade tasted like tap water. I was expecting a lot more overall and i was let down. I was even embarrassed to have recommended a family member stop by. She got there at 5 and there was nothing and then waited in line until 6:30 only to leave at 7 after going through the haunted house. There was nothing more to do at that point.

Find legit food vendors. You had 1 - Mernas and it was good but the others were borderline health code violators or inept at serving the public. 2. Keep your security - they were the only ones nice enough to welcome us and thank us for choosing your event. Ticket/ sales could have extended same courtesy, but didn't. 3. The value of the $30 ticket was lost - as there was simply no one in line - at all - I would have saved $10 and fees just walking up and buying a $20 GA ticket for my son. I am sure timing matters and so does the date selected, but was very disappointed with our online ticket purchase. 4. Display by local Obtaiumworks was cool to see. But the event seemed to be missing some dressing on the salad inside. Lots of empty open space not decorated or themed . Music /sound area could have been dressed with less chintzy decorations and lighting. Employ local artisans to develop the space! 5. Felt sorry for the marketplace vendors - who were kind and hopefully made enough money to pay for their booths. Overall, I left the event feeling let down and wallet stabbed. After reading these other recent reviews, I see why. Seriously, arguing with the disabled? ADA violations are no joke. As a business you could treat families of all different capabilities with better care! Themed nights might be something to think of to get more entertainment through and better food vendors connected and draw a better crowd stream. You're in the perfect location for Sea /nautical theme, radioactive nuclear themes military, fantasy etc. partner with out Vallejo artists resources so many talented folks live and create here! Welcome your guests! Be kind! These reviews mention how rude you all are to people who dropped far more money on the event than me and frankly that's unacceptable. Thank guests when they leave small touches like these mean something to a hard working parent like me choosing to save cash for an event like this ! Shows me you recognize I could have taken that money elsewhere, but I kept it local and with your operation getting there to support you! It matters! Do it! So when asked - the kid appreciated the experience - as a parent in the end, that's all you really hope for.

Mouse-Con is such a sweet event. I enjoy going with my friend the past few years. We started going…read moreto Mouse-Con in South San Francisco, then it moved to Concord. Price for a ticket is cheap ($10 in 2021), compared to D23. People are allowed to express themselves in Disney attire, just like at Disneyland, this is a safe space. We've never parked at the hotel lot, I don't know if it's covered? There are restaurants walking distance from the hotel: Taco Bell, The Habit, Starbucks, and more. My favorite thing to do is walk around and look at what the vendors are selling. I've always made some amazing purchases for not too much money. My friend loves to attend the panels. Super amazing, they are able to draw out at least one famous Disney person. Bring cash if you wish to have something signed by a Disney Princess, it appears to run $40 in cash for signatures and $20 for a photo. Great way to get your Disney fix without having to drive 400 miles. Also now that so many Disney stores have closed in the Bay Area, you can walk about a shop a little. See you next year.

I never knew such a convention existed in the Bay Area until a few months ago. The name Mouse-Con…read moreleads you to believe it's a convention pretty much based around Mickey Mouse or so I thought but I was wrong. This year it was being held in the crown plaza hotel, they utilized a few conference rooms, part of the lobby and a mice portion of the registration area of the hotel. The admission fee was $10 I believe and parking was free, they did have shirts, buttons and other souvenirs for sake with the Mouse-Con logo on them but they sold out pretty fast. This convention is only held on one day but you will get through it pretty fast as it is really small. It was an all around Disney Convention with so much cool merchandise, many of the vendors were selling exclusive park merchandise such as limited released pins, funko pops, spirit jerseys, mouse ears, vintage memorabilia and just about everything you could possibly think of. I did like the selection and variety of items that were being sold, although some items were highly priced I did get some good deals on pins and a pair of ears. The convention also held a costume/cosplay contest which was great and there were tons of creative costumes! There were some guest speakers and special guests such as Margaret Kerry (Known for the famed Tinkerbell), Eva Bella & Livvy Stubenrauch (Voices of Ana and Elsa from "Frozen"), Tony Bancroft (helped create Pumbaa for Lion King, Cogsworth from Beauty and the Beast and Lago the parrot from Aladdin). But this year's really special guest and spotlight was Disney Legend Bob Gurr!! Bob Gurr has designed most of the ride vehicles at Disneyland (Autopia, Haunted Mansion, Matterhorn Bobsleds, Disneyland Monorail and Submarine Voyage) as well as the King Kong encounter at Universal Studios Hollywood. I had the pleasure of meeting him and taking a picture with him, he's very nice and I had been wanting to meet him for a few years now so I'm glad to have experienced that. Overall it's a good convention I just think it should be bigger and should be two days instead of one and maybe have more vendors and other fun activities. It's worth checking out and hopefully I'll be back next year.

Great experience with GREAT GUIDES who really make the visit fun and worthwhile. A must see if in…read moreSan Jose. I recommend this adventure despite my two very serious complaints:. Tour groups are TOO LARGE! they pack over two dozen people into tiny rooms with the people breathing down your neck. Price of the tour is TOO EXPENSIVE: if the groups were smaller so the experience wasn't so rushed and crowded, I would accept the high price. But to charge this amount and then jam you into a too-crowded tour group is simply price-gouging at the expensive of the customer. Really takes away from the positive feeling of the experience. If it weren't for the great guides (maybe I just go a good one?), I don't think this place would do very well on its own. . ..

Signed on for the optional self guided attic and basement tour and I'm so happy I did. Got to speak with a guy named JT who works there and he was so full of knowledge regarding Sarah and the house. He really gave such a new perspective to the designs I had never thought of before. I understand the tour guides have a script and they like to lean into the paranormal but Sarah is such a character, just like her house. It almost felt disrespectful walking through and hearing they had 'ghost' noises playing in part of the basement. This woman was highly intelligent and did so many great things just to be painted as a crazy woman. Winchester needs to do better. Major shout out to JT, if he ran that place I just know it would be spectacular.

The haunt is kinda in the middle of it all.... they spaced everyone out, which makes me happy because I'm able to enjoy the haunt without others screaming, pushing, or stopping inside. It was like 20 dollars per person, very affordable, and well staffed! We actually did get scared several times... And the props were amazing!! We will definitely return next year if it's active again!
